lovely day and exceptional training despite no air conditioning in auditorium-it happens...
feel confident to contribute to bee monitoring projects going forward using iNaturalist and my phone camera/video or digital camera. More familiar with different types of native bees and what to look for during monitoring and best angle for photo for identification.

Great overview of what we will do on the Native Bee Project and also lots of information on anatomy of bees and hints on how to identify the various species
